Most of our code base is in Java but previous knowledge of the language is not a requirement. Knowledge in another similar language like C# is a plus. We are looking for developers with a keen interest in writing readable and testable code, using test-driven development, refactoring and promoting best practices in the team.
We work in pair-programming among team members about half of the time.
Past experience developing storage systems is a plus, but is not required.
